Adding aliases

[lornadsilvasonos]

When using sfcc-ci sandbox:alias:add -s sbx_id -h www.abc.com I get a selection of three IP addresses to add to my hosts file. But when I use the command sfcc-ci sandbox:alias:add -s sbx_id -h www.abc.com -j I do not get the IP addresses that need to be added to my hosts file.

What is the solution here?

Hi @lornadsilvasonos

But when I use the command sfcc-ci sandbox:alias:add -s sbx_id -h www.abc.com -j I do not get the IP addresses that need to be added to my hosts file.

I can't see a reason, why the IP addresses are missing in the result JSON string of this command. As you probably know, the idea of the -j,--json flag is only to provide an alternative, machine readable output of a command. The absence of the IP addresses in this case has no deeper meaning and must be used the same way as stated in the docs of the command.

@martin-dodo-hartmann Is this something you can add?

We will not get to it in the near future, but @lornadsilvasonos if you want, feel free to create a PR.

Perhaps #187 helps with this issue in a tangential way?

@lornadsilvasonos Now that sandbox IP addresses can queried (see #187), will that help you when working with aliases?
